The first legs of the Champions League playoffs continue on Wednesday with Qarabag and Newcastle going head-to-head to decide who advances to the knockout round.
History is imminent for Qarabag this week, as they've become the first team from Azerbaijan to advance from the group stage of this competition. They have won their last two fixtures, and will host the English side at home — a major advantage in the clubs' first meeting.
Meanwhile, Newcastle is coming off of a strong 3-1 win over Aston Villa last time out. The Magpies are a threat on attack, but have struggled on defense, unable to keep a clean sheet in their last seven fixtures. Can they perform on the road?
